still no new snow. new black bear chair opened today.. feels like a different resort. pretty sick. messed around on side hits and gulleys and things. it goes right over the top of all this rad gulley stuff on the east side. soo many gulleys and natural features without being "gnarly." its super fun in the spring.
rode all day today, till it was dusk. wasnt as fun as yesterday cause it was all completely tracked to death, but we hiked a few spots that were good. first hike i went way low on east and literally hiked out probably a mile and a half at least. it was brutal... i was so sweaty and it was only 16 degrees or something. took off my hat, and then my hair froze.
day 5.. eaglecrest opened yesterday but i had to work.. went up today and everyone who did both days said today was better. heavy snow, dumping all day, pretty wet, but sick. pow. wasnt even close to how everyone said it was a few days ago. rode with richie, mark, and makai. ive only ridden with makai a handful of times cause theyre usually out sledding.. but heres a switch 5 tap.
ohhhhh man, can you say pow? it was dumping for a couple days... deep and untracked. best preseason day ever.
it was gorgeous in the morning
it was deeeeep.. all of that fresh stuff is from the last couple days.
heres day two.. just threw the video together quick and added the only song i had on that computer at the time. it fit though, cause i wanted it to be kind of a dorky song like that. its actually my friends grandma and uncle.. haha.
went from 6" up top and nothing at the base to 14" up top ant 6" at the base, overnight. classic northwest mid-weight pow.. awesome snow. we werent out there for long but i rode pow in the winter sunset, so i cant complain.
the video isnt very exciting, but of course i had to make something for day one.. my camera is part of my identity!
